Who is M?

I'm the musician that owns this site. "M" is my screenname at a few music-related forums, and it's also my initial (how convenient).

This is an entirely self-indulgent, hedonistic effort. The Internet has made publishing nearly free for a common everyman like me. So, I've staked a claim on a domain name and set up housekeeping here at noiseinthebasement.com.

You may find things of interest here, but the site is primarily intended to satisfy my musical pursuits and interests. I just want to publish things that I like -- sometimes works in progress, sometimes finished pieces, sometimes collaborations with other musicians from around the globe. In other words, total unabashed self-indulgence from my little home studio.

So, where's the music?

The music is on the mp3s page. There are other bits of interest on the o.p.p. page (yeah, you know me - other people's projects), and there are a few Steely Dan tributes on the covers page.

Thanks for stopping by.
